Let me put it that way: me father was a seafarer for seven years, and he never got rid of his sea sickness. My guess is, the novelty wears off pretty fast, especially if you’re constantly working below deck.

Still funny af too watch though. :-D

Yeah, it’s a disgrace!

I guess it’s implied, but he doesn’t have a solution because for him it’s not a problem, it’s the intended result.

Yes, that’s what I meant, thanks for the clarification.

I tend to use /opt/[service]/, like for example /opt/forgejo/. It’s outside of any user’s Homedir and it seems to fit into what the FHS 3.0 (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard) defines.

You clearly have never tried to get a Bernese Mountain Dog out of fresh fallen snow.

No, i think that’s organized. An orgasm is a species of New World marsupials that plays dead in case of danger.

No no, that’s osmosis. Orgasm is is a form of Western theatre in which music is a fundamental component and dramatic roles are taken by singers.

Hell, even if you’re not a printer…

Shit, I just read the link name and was hoping for a list of AI companies that have died.

This shit’s dark…

If it’s a Corgi, I would estimate the power output at .1 horsepower max. But if it’s a small dog the size of a large dog, then that’s something entirely different.

This is the way! At least install security upgrades nightly using unattended-upgrades and reboot from time to time to get the latest Kernel version.

Want to get REAL technical? Try a Ceph MultiSite Setup. I’ve only heard about it quite recently myself, so I don’t have any experience yet, but I think it might fit your needs. It would replicate your data over all locations though, so you would have to have enough storage everywhere.

Assuming that the Queen weighed 60kg (the internet is vague on that one) and an average Corgi is about 12kg, that would be somewhere around 20 baby elephants in weight.

Baby elephants per Corgi is also a (now) new unit of density.

Happy to help.

He was a punk, she did ballet.

Not OP, and haven’t done that (yet), but I think we really all should.

Of yeah, there really was, thank you. :)

und denke mal, bei dem Username, dass du deutsch sprechen kannst haha Jup, stimmt. :D

Ich bleib’ trotzdem mal bei Englisch, damit’s im englischen Thread verstanden wird.

ENGLISH: Yeah, you’re right, I wasn’t particularly on-topic there. :D I tried to address your underlying assumptions as well as the actual file format question, and it kinda derailed from there.

Sooo, file format… I think you’re restricting yourself too much if you just use the formats that are included in binutils. Also, you have conflicting goals there: it’s compression (make the most of your storage) vs. resilience (have a format that is stable in the long term). Someone here recommended lzip, which is definitely a right answer for good compression ratio. The Wikipedia article I linked features a table that compares compressed archive formats, so that might be a good starting point to find resilient formats. Look out for formats with at least Integrity Check and possibly Recovery Record, as these seem to be more important than compression ratio. When you have settled on a format, run some tests to find the best compression algorithm for your material. You might also want to measure throughput/time while you’re at it to find variants that offer a reasonable compromise between compression and performance. If you’re so inclined, try to read a few format specs to find suitable candidates.

You’re generally looking for formats that:

• are in widespread use
• are specified/standardized publicly
• are of a low complexity
• don’t have features like DRM/Encryption/anti-copy
• are self-documenting
• are robust
• don’t have external dependencies (e.g. for other file formats)
• are free of any restrictive licensing/patents
• can be validated.

You might want to read up on more technical infos on how an actual archive handles these challenges at https://slubarchiv.slub-dresden.de/technische-standards-fuer-die-ablieferung-von-digitalen-dokumenten and the PDF files with specifications linked there (all in German).

They all will, if the filesystem images aren’t pre-compressed themselves, and if OP is archiving raw image formats (DNG, CR2, …).
